Please Like Her 06 – With people like them, the last thing you should do is reason with them.
Lin Yanyan could not understand Shang Lu’s hint, so Shang Lu could only be straightforward.
Lin Yanyan was stunned for several seconds before she realized what was happening. She was so startled that she almost dropped the last radish she was holding and asked, “Are you saying… we were really stealing just now?”
Shang Lu nodded and then walked towards the radish field.
Lin Yanyan asked from behind her, “Lulu, are you… going back?”
Shang Lu replied seriously, “Since we’re pursuing excitement, let’s see it through to the end.”
With that, Shang Lu quickly ran towards the radish field as she took advantage of Ye Lu and the owner being far away.
This kind of realistic simulation of theft was something they would never experience in normal circumstances!
Lin Yanyan : “?”
Netizens : “?”
[Shang Lu, you’re so bold!]
[Other people still haven’t completed the mission, while someone has finished but is going back for more excitement, hahaha]
Shang Lu quickly appeared in the radish field, loosened the soil with her hand, and dug up two radishes in succession. She hugged them tightly and prepared to run back.
Under Ye Lu’s envious gaze, she had succeeded again, but unfortunately, the owner had also seen her.
When he discovered that there was another thief in his field, and a female one at that, the owner became even more bewildered.
Ye Lu was almost out of breath, and the owner wasn’t much better. So, the owner changed his mind.
He couldn’t catch the man, but couldn’t he catch a woman? As long as he caught one, the others wouldn’t be able to escape either!
So he changed his target and chased after Shang Lu.
Seeing the owner change direction, Ye Lu ran even faster, finally feeling a sense of relief.
Phew!
He was finally let off the hook!
Ye Lu bent over, not even caring about the radish, and put it aside, panting heavily.
On the other hand, when Shang Lu realized that the homeowner had turned his attention towards her, she began to run frantically.
Netizens teased her.
[Hahaha, Shang Lu! You’re in the same boat now!]
[Exciting, isn’t it? Are you finally satisfied?]
[Is this what they call playing with fire and getting burned, hahaha.]
But it’s okay; the stamina of the owner has already been depleted by Ye Lu, and he can’t catch up with Shang Lu for the time being.
As Shang Lu was running, she ran into Song Zeqian, who was carrying his last radish.
The scene was a bit awkward.
Song Zeqian changed direction and ran, but Shang Lu insisted on following him, even proudly shouting, “Haven’t you completed your mission yet? This is my fifth one!”
Song Zeqian couldn’t understand, “Why do you want to steal so many?”
Before Shang Lu could answer, the voice of the owner behind them sounded, “Do you guys have an organized plan? Does each person have a set number of radishes to steal?”
Shang Lu loudly said, “Yes! Because we all love eating radishes!”
Male host : “…?”
[Hahaha, because of love?]
[Shang Lu’s answer is so boldly righteous.]
[The owner looks confused by this world. Young people staying up late at night to steal worthless radishes, and everyone even has quotas, hahaha.]
[This is an organized group!]
Song Zeqian slowed down a bit and waited for Shang Lu, then said, “He doesn’t seem like he can hold on much longer.”
Shang Lu asked Song Zeqian, “Do you want to do something more interesting?”
Song Zeqian responded, “…Go on.”
Shang Lu held the carrots tighter and said, “I’ve observed it already. The director is behind the firewood in the eight o’clock direction, and the assistant director is behind the bushes in the three o’clock direction.”
Song Zeqian made his choice directly, “The director.”
Netizens : “???”
[Hahaha, you two are truly conspiring together.]
[For everyone’s understanding, Shang Lu asked : “Do you hate the director more or the assistant director?” Song Zeqian answered: “The director.”]
[Let’s watch the counterattack from the guest team!]
So Shang Lu and Song Zeqian suddenly turned and charged in the director’s direction.
Both of them gave it their all, as if they were competing in some Olympic competition for the glory of their country.
The owner, watching them charge in the direction of his radish field again, naturally became a bit anxious. Will this ever end!
However, he hadn’t even reached there when he saw these two radish thieves pulling another person from behind the firewood pile!
Oh my god! This is too absurd! How many people have come to his field? How can these people do this just for such cheap radishes?
Shang Lu forcefully handed two radishes to the director and held his shoulder to keep him from leaving. Song Zeqian simply covered the director’s mouth, not giving him a chance to explain.
When the owner arrived in front of them, these two people let go and ran together, leaving the director holding two radishes. The director and the owner stared at each other.
[I knew they wouldn’t let the director off the hook. You’re in for it now!]
[This show, from the director to the guests, all has bad hearts, haha!]
[The director’s face says it all: I’m so scared, don’t come near me, haha!]
[Reaping what you sow! It’s your turn now! The first director in history to dig his own pit, haha!]
The owner had originally thought that when he caught the thieves who stole his radishes, he would definitely kick them hard to vent his anger.
But at this moment, as he faced this slightly chubby middle-aged man who looked terrified, he was at a loss for words.
The owner couldn’t figure out what these people were up to. If they wanted something valuable, that would be one thing, but these radishes were left to rot at home every year. Why didn’t they just ask for them directly? Or just buy them with a few cents, was it really necessary to steal them?
At this moment, Shang Lu had run far away and couldn’t help but point and laugh at the director.
With Shang Lu leading the way, the other hidden staffs saw this comical scene and burst into laughter one by one.
Oh, among them, it was the assistant director who laughed the loudest, completely unaware that he had narrowly escaped becoming the target himself.
The owner didn’t dare to do anything to the director for a moment. He didn’t even dare to ask, “Where did you come from?” again because of the laughter that kept coming and going. He was panicked, not knowing how many people were hiding in his own field!
It sounded like there were more than a dozen at least! This was really scary!
So the owner and the director stared at each other in silence for a few seconds, then the owner finally said, “Are you all crazy?” and turned and ran back home.
[Raise your hands! Owner, you’re surrounded by thieves!]
[Who wouldn’t be afraid? A bunch of lunatics coming to steal radishes in the middle of the night, hahaha.]
[May I ask, what does it feel like to discover a dozen thieves in your own radish field in the middle of the night? Does it feel like a dream?]
After the owner returned home, he only understood what had happened after his wife’s explanation.
Soon, everyone followed the program team into their home to continue filming for the night.
Upon realizing he had been fooled, the owner displayed shame and embarrassment on his face, clearly feeling both angry and embarrassed.
However, when his wife told him that the program team had paid them several times the amount needed to buy all the radishes, he instantly replaced his expression of joy that couldn’t be concealed, saying, “If you like, pull out more! They’re all grown at home, fresh and healthy!”
[Owner : “I was about to get angry!” Owner’s wife : “They paid us.” Owner: “Pull out more?”]
[The master of changing faces in modern times : They paid? Then it’s fine. It’s just too real.]
In the end,
only Shang Lu, Lin Yanyan and Xu Ze completed the task; Ye Lu didn’t pull out three radishes, and Song Zeqian was unlucky and didn’t manage to bring back the last one in time.
As a punishment, they both had to prepare tomorrow’s breakfast.
Shang Lu looked troubled, “Is this a punishment for them or for us?”
Ye Lu couldn’t cook at all, and Song Zeqian had demonstrated his cooking skills once, and his skills were just as good as Ye Lu’s.
Ye Lu was full of confidence, “Don’t worry, it won’t be deadly.”
Song Zeqian : “…”
That made sense too.
The recording for that night ends there; it has been an exhausting day, and most of the programteam and guests are going to bed.
